[JenZee]

omigod! *swoon*

[stoph]

*sniff* i hate all of these.. because ill not be able to see any Insomnia stuff in person, living so far away *cries* gorgeous though..

[Main Loop]

all beauties

[twoheaded]

the parking meter....its....
The red buddha....



You're my hero and my fuel mr.coro.

[j a k e]

What a damn treat. Can I be your brother?

[Marko Djurdjevic]

Yeah, fuck, you know what I said the other day. Too good to be true.
Jeez...do you use pubic hair growing along your chode to make custum brushes?
How do you do oil? Isn't that stinky? :D



M

[Kian]

Everythings awesome man. The top pic is soo raw

[Chuck,mate.]

Ho, ho.... ho....
that bird guy is just sick. sick.
red fat statue is my fav. insane skills, just agonizingly great.
thanks for the inspiration.

:)

[Elwell]

...a couple out my ass. Will you be demoing this technique?
How do you do oil? Isn't that stinky? :D
Only the ones he does out his ass.

[Crash]

First of all *ASSPAT ASSPAT ASSPAT* i want to have your babies etc.


I have a few questions though. The Oil portrait is soo nice but are those scribbles across his face digital? they look really out of place and kind of rushed. Like if you dropped the pen on the tablet. Oh and the crowhobo, is that a photo in the bg?



LOVELY stuff.

[shadoman]

Wow, nice. The oil paintings are incredible. The lighting on the bird guy is stellar. Where the ground and his feet meet looks so real and the caution tape seals the deal. You have never ceased to impress.

[bhanu]

If i had the money,
oh i had the money. You guys stop with the teasers . Please i am not going to insomania. And after looking at these I know I am gonna miss a lot.
Great update sir. Oh I dont have any money.

[Interceptor]

It's just been too much around the FF section here lately, and now THIS!
Awesome stuff.

[Mr Man]

Woohoo, I woundered when you'd get your ass back on the boards man!
Good to see from you :teeth:
How long did the buddha take? His colours are really nice and rich I love it!

[vigostar]

It seems like you have this sort of facination with coins there... Is there.... Did someone steal your piggybank when u were a youngin??? Im really digging that dood with the crow coat.... Executed really well... and the lighting on the floor of that alley way is awesome...... thanks for sharing

[foster]

You stud! It's the thought of you painting in the same room as I that makes me tremble with fear.

love it all!

Jon

[Carnifex]

i dunno why,but the buddah strikes me most...just so...fleshy. man,i curse myself for having spent so much money! (f.ex. on montreal ;))

[Brendan N]

If i had the money,
oh i had the money. You guys stop with the teasers . Please i am not going to insomania. And after looking at these I know I am gonna miss a lot.
Great update sir. Oh I dont have any money.

Hey yeah, what about all the 3rd world rejects on this forum like me and bhanu? We can't help we're stuck where we are. You soulless bastards are tormenting us! Is there no way you guys could make like a DVD or two about the coolest stuff?

Coro, this stuff is freagin dope. The profile portrait is my fave, and as Chuck said the bird dude is sick.

Totally trippin ballz,
ciao!

- d.

[SBACHAN]

You stud! It's the thought of you painting in the same room as I that makes me tremble with fear.


these are great man,
i wish i was going to Insomnia....
grrrrrr...........

Love that Buddah

[Serpian]

Parking meter: oh yeah!
Girl sketches: Oh yeah!
Really digging Birdman, but he's flying! I fell the feet aren't really touching the ground.
Red Buddha is too good.

[asoir]

knowledge used correctly. love it =]

[Crush]

Fucking hell... the first enviro, the parking meter, the crow guy, the buddah.... incredible, all of them :x

*wishes he could make insomania* >:| >:| >:|

[otis]

Coro,

Is the 1st one oils? Don't know if you planned it, but the reflection on the canvas from the camera compliments the reflection in the piece. Definately made me look twice.

[Molly]

again, awesome work, ^ this lot have said what I needed to say..
thanks for sharing luv,

Mx

[Mr.Blonde]

very impressive, hearts and asspats

[Unbreakable]

Man, I can't wait to learn from you at the atelier!!!

[blog]

yay another coro update, yay!

[stalsby]

very nice oils as usual! damn i'm jealous. when u gonna teach me?

[SprayNation]

Wow, massive skillz. First one is incredible!

[Kan Muftić]

Love to see people woring with traditional media. You gotta try it to know what it is...
Nice stroke style.
Best regards,

[Mitchell]

Your oils are always an inspiration! I wish I was going to SF.

[Bomba]

Color master 3000! Wha-DAMN! Miss you bunny,
-J-

[koppa]

awesome

[joelhinxman]

nice stuff man. that first landscape is awsome. the reflections on the puddels in the alley there are just beautifull. your getting put on my list of people to stalk at the workshop.

oh yea did you actualy take apart a parking metter for that?

[Victor B]

more sentiments on par with what everyone else is saying, love your oils especially the buildings, and the buddah! When can we expect a full color glossy art book, full of your oil paintings like the one Shawn Barber had at Montreal?

[SprayNation]

very nice oils as usual! damn i'm jealous. when u gonna teach me?

LOL, I think you could learn alot from your avator Stalsby. Except for the little guy doesn't mix paint, he just kind of throws it on. :^^:

Anyway, did anyone else catch the "Not Sundays Bitch" in the meter? LOL, that made my day.

[I0N]

your brush strokes always impress when you let us see them, like in that portrait. I'm wondering though, how many of these are digital?

[Justin.]

Wow, I can see you've been lookin' about. I can spy so many influences flying all around in there, Marko, and possibly a small amount of Shelly Wan in the colors?

This is (http://www.conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=54862&stc=1&d=1164616774), in my opinion one of your best paintings. It reminds me of those Dobsky sunsets only in midday and with cheerleader-fucking coolness. I love that grate that you suggested, really sweet. Couldn't of taken what, 1 hour and 25 mins from life?

Keep truckin, mother fuckin' coro36!

[Icon]

The thing I love the most about these is that as long as you have the necessary knowledge medium means nothing! It's like you master it all... but I have to say those oils are so beautiful I wish I could see them personally!! :D Pretty pimp, mr, Pretty pimp!!!

[steak-tron]

Dear Mr. Coro Kaufmann,

You are both talented and beautiful. I implore you, please be so kind as to grant me a private audience so that I might learn the pleasures of your artistic hands.

Sincerely,

Kemptronbanjo

[robinchyo]

The birdman picture is fantastic! I love the design and the blue flare you've got going, there! How did you go about in handling the background?

[draw]

And now I wanna paint


Is there some meaning in the parking meter one?

Thanks for sharing

[michel]

damn coro…another proof why you are one of my favorites!!! :cheerleader:
i really love the first piece. this one next to piece of gerhard richter
on a wall in my livingroom…:xpld: (one of my wet dreams, sorry.)

[guterrez]

oh man I love your oil work even they make me hate my own oils...
is it possible to buy one of these, how much for a little el coro buddha?

[Summer Pudding]

I love the idiosyncrasies you bring to your work. Marvelous. Its a shame I can't make the San Francisco shindig, your talks in Montreal were really revealing.

Pete

[Oblio]

i don't like them.


Not!

hug me in two weeks - i'll steal your bag of... muse!!!

[K.I.D.]

Cool. My favorites are the bird guy, the first one on top, and figure montage. Hmm...maybe Coro should start producing and marketing his own brand of Butt-Oils. I'm sure they would sell very well.

[se7en_]

c-to-the-m-f-oooo. Awesome stuff man, you are a weird one : )

[Leari_79790]

Great textures! When I first saw that painting "foolinaround" it took a while for my eyes to adjust to figure out what I'm looking at. I nominate this for the best Ca.

[michaelh]

great textures and light - masterful works!

[el coro]

yessssssssssss replies!!! i feel all fuzzy inside!

se7en_: thanks man. hope yer well. yes i am :)

K.I.D.: thanks man. hehe i have started saving it in a jar i keep under my easel. perhaps ill set up an ebay store as soon as ive accumulated enough.

Oblio: yesssssss!!! a not joke :) see ya soon frate!

Summer Pudding: man i tell ya, the idosyncracies always some at the end. its like that extra hour or so of touching up, and fixing my clumsy mistakes.
bummed to hear we'll not see you at sf. it was good chillin with u in montreal. hope everythings going well wif ya...

guterrez: thanks man. the buddha is spoken for already, hehe. but if you are interested in anyting else, i can quote ya a price :D

michel: thanks so much dood! you guys are really diggin that first alley one huh? im half ass planning on aseries of alley shots, there are so many awesome ones here in sf, i cant help myself haha..

draw: go paint! i had a parking meter i found smashed open on the street like 8 years ago. i have draggged it around forever, and i finally decided to paint it. thats all :)

robinchyo: thanks man! i had a lot of fun on him. i had been kicking that ideaaround for a while, drew him hella small in my sketchbook, scanned it and colored in ps. i just put it in a photo i had taken. i wanted to see if i could get him to sit in the scene. im fairly happy with the results. there are several things that bother me still, but the solutions sit beyond my simple monky brain understanding haha...

steak-tron: just remember to bring the tape of the babies crying....

Icon: thanks dudette :). yeah the conventions are the same no matter what you use. my cheap tricks show up no matter what im faking my way through...

Justin Oaksford: i steal from everyone around here. that one really isnt that impressive in person haha just so you all know :) naw i worked that bitch off a photo, and it took like 3-4 days to complete...i dont get the chance to paint on location much, i gotta resort to photography, and bang em out at night after work ;) thats how i TRUCK :D

I0N:thanks. i really try to be direct with my strokes. the alley, meters, like 90% of the profile one, and the buddha are oils. everything else is ps.

SprayNation: you might be one of the only people who's caught that hahaha. i owe you a crit!!! ill get at ya soonz i promise!

vctr: thanks man. id love to put a book together, but i dont think my stuff is "cool" enough to warrant a book haha. m\aybe one of these days, i dunno :)

joelhinxman: thanks dude. again with the alley shot haha. ill bring it to the workshop. yes i took apart the meter, but it was alrady smashed, so it was easy. :D

koppa: thanks brudda!

Bomba: miss ya too sweet cheeks! so close, yet so far. haha. ill see you soon though :D

Skeiff: thanks so much!

Chupacabra: thanks dude.

stalsby: thanks man. im teaching at the ca school. where u at? :D

blog: yay!!!! hope yer good dood!

Unbreakable: im teaching alla prima stuff, and greek love 101.

Mr.Blonde: thanks man. how you been? hope alls well with u. keep killin it:D

Molly: thanks HOMEGIRL :) hope yer doin good!

otis: yeah its oils. i can totally see what you mean hahaha. i think its cuz i painted in the direction of alot of the suurfaces on this one. like the only time ive ever had reflections compliment one of my shits...

Crush: thanks :)

asoir: tee hee :D

Serpian: thanks. yeah i know what u mean about the feet. thats my biggest beef with that piece. but i picked my battles on it. thats unfortunately a fatal flaw.

SBACHAN: thanks man. too bad we wont be seein ya. i guess your brain will be spared.

Brendan N: thanks so much man. the dvds are in the works, markos is finally done, and there will be more to follow! we tryin' i promise :)

Carnifex: DAMMIT, HOW GOD AM I GOING TO BE DENIED MY SWEET CARNIFEX!!!!!! i will shed tears for you. at least your brain wont be melted :)

foster: ill be the guy in he corner in assless leather chaps and the biker cap slow dancin for you. dude im so psyched to see ya again man. this is gonna be awesome!!!!

vigostar thanks vigo. yeah i have been really into the coins lately. they fun to paint i thinks! hope yer well dude!

Mr Man: hey dude! thanks for the kind words. the buddha took like 3-4 sittings. overall maybe 12-14 hours?

Interceptor: RUN!!! WE DROPPIN BOMBS IN HERE!!!! :D

bhanu: thaks dude. sorry i will miss out on te opportunity to melt your brain :?

shadoman: thanks man. funny you should mention his feet where they meet the ground, since that was a part that bugged me til the end, and serpian caught it. but im glad you think it looks good! :D

Crash: thanks man! to answer your questions...the profile i painted in oils, however i reworked a lot digitally as well. i did scribble on it, but it just felt righthaha. and yes, its a photo in the bg. but its my photo at least, and not a google ;)

Elwell: yes i will be doing a sumi brush technique with the long hairs that hang off my ballsack. i will dance the macarena and do a portrait at the same time. hope yer well dude! when we gonna see some new elwell shizz?
im feindin fo a fix!

Chuck,mate.: thanks brudda!!

Kian: thanks to u too!

Marko Djurdjevic: thanks man. you know it means tons coming from my hariy serbian love muffin. yes i do, and it smells similar to the love we make. distinctly animal in nature. im gonna be all over you like a cheap flamboyant suit come workshop time. ill melt more than your brain :P

j a k e: thanks hahahaa

twoheaded: thanks to you sir. just as you are mine :)

Main Loop: thanks mister loop. where ya been! hope yer doin good.

stoph: thanks man. dont cry, you brain wont be melted, and that can, on some level be viewed as a good thing....i think

JenZee: thanks so much :D

thanks to all you guys for your nice words. its sweet that you humor me in my old age :)-c36

[j a k e]

I'm SO buying one. Great design.

[Alex Alexandrov]

wow wow wow wow .....amazing stuff O_O

[Theo]

awesome stuff as always. specially like your coins for some weird reason... odd.

[braden m]

Extremely inspiring stuff. This is the level to strive for. excellent excellent excellent.

[stephen]

sweetness, i really like that profile, and the parking meter. i've just recently started to spend more time on my oil paintings, and man it's a whole new challenge really getting in there trying to get all the details perfect while still keeping all the shapes and proportions correct.. anyway, keep it up.
i'd like to get out to insomania, but im trying to get some friends off there asses to go with me.. we'll see..

[Brendan N]

Coro that's probably the only toy I ever saw that's super cute and uber badass at the same time. Rules man. Your photorealism is shooting through the roof too - the camera painting is total tits, couldn't believe my eyes. Digging the paint texture on sitee too - makes the piece.

Thanks for the word on the DVDs - you guys are so awesome for doing that.
ciao!

- d.

[3ch1n0]

Took a trip up to SF for Thanksgiving and was lucky enough to see some of
your graff up on Haight Street.

Thanks for the inspiration Mr. Coro.

-3ch1n0

[guterrez]

well a buddha would have been nice to praise it everytime I enter my workingroom...but I think I`d praise every "real" coro in my atelier ;)
no matter it`s a still life, portrait or anything else, if you have something sweet you think I can afford let me know^^

[Calle_]

oh, I do fancy your oil talent. very impressive.
I love the first one, especially the little cloud in the top-middle.. its perfect.
I could propably be talking about it all day, but I have a question.
To make those small but still very sharp dots/lines of paint, How would you recommend one does that? always been at the back of my head since everything I happen to put down in oils get to soft.

c_.

[voraz]

Great work, I really love that parking metter piece and the photo machine is really cool too (and all the other stuff...).
cheers

[Mike Frank]

Hell yeah man great work, I envy how you just seem to hop around all these different styles and ways of working.

[Carnifex]

oh snap update! :D
sexy pencils man,sexy pencils. mind sharing how you did the bird guy? i see some pencil lines,and i wanna know how you mixed those two so nicely without making it muddy or "under-rendered".:)

[alxcote]

Man I always loved your paintings, they're truely badass.

alx

[Mandryk]

thanks for the shot in the arm of pure inspiration. Just Beautiful. Wish I cold have made it to isomnia to see you do your thing again - not only are you too fucking talented but you're entertaining to boot!

Cheer man!

[Rich Pellegrino]

Wow coro, this is beautiful work...Wish I had some extra loot to go to the workshop and learn from you guys. Keep ripping shit.

[JasonChan]

:cheerleader: What? You didn't post your sexbot?

Awesome stuff Coro!

I want to have your baby! :cheerleader:

[strych9ine]

You versatile bastard... love the chunky brush strokes on that profile portrait. Good to see work in so many different techniques. Here's a crit though, as I know you want one from me. I would pull back on the fantastic rendering, gorgeous lighting and just the overall creativity in each piece, because as it is I am not able to find the flaws that you need to hear to aid you in your development as an artist. Snooch!

[Layil]

mmmm, juicy Coro goodness.... yes, a book is in order i think.

;P

[Idiot Apathy]

Great work. You bringing any paintings to the workshop? Would be real nice to see them in person, guess it wouldn't have to be at the workshop either.

[MRPLOT]

it`s really cool man how you use the colors..
i hope to use like you one day...keep posting .maybe you came to spain one day and we can paint a graffiti

[Vyle]

Woaaah................ Yummie.

[Lone Wolf]

That Buddha piece is awesome! Great post Coro

[SIM-R]

Beautiful brushwork and feel to these .

[ooga booga]

fucking AWESOME!

[AndrewLey]

awwww goddammit

great stuff coro

the oils are really great - the light in the first one is stunning

[Jushra]

amazing. the color usage and lighting...wow

[Gezstar]

hey man, awesome stuff. i especially love the landscapes and that girl sketchpage is full of flavour and life.

[Conteart]

Great stuff El Coro!

[steak-tron]

Coro, you make me smile everyday..... among other things ;)

[Form]

im most interested in 'x 57'

if it was random, i stand corrected :)

Apart from that, these are as raw and regal as one would expect from you, being the dirty old man you claim to be :)

Im now taking a small shot of 1800 and toasting to 'better days' ;)

That is all O_O

[Ben Mauro]

crow-suite bum is blowin my mind, really nice.

[Onir]

:$ geeez wish I had seen these sooner. amazing stuff as always man; must say those oils and that crow man really just dropped my jaw. don't want to downplay the others but those just made blew me away. wish I could go to insomania.. but if there are any more workshops I'll definitely make the effort to get out there! amazing work once again!

[Coinpurse]

Hotdamn goddogs son...

[Chronologic]

Your style is impregnable.

[el coro]

thanks for all the replies guys. it makes me tingle to think that my crummy old tricks were compelling enough for you to take the time to leave a comment.

Chronologic: thanks haha, although i assure you, it most certianly is not impregnable. my shit is fulla holes like swiss cheese!


Thestjester: haha thanks :)


Onir: thanks alot dude.

Ben Mauro: thanks man. i had fun on that one. those are meant to be pigeons by the way :)

Form: completly random. i believe it was off a dollar bill i scanned. drink one for me dood :D

steak-tron: So many times
Said it was forever
Said our love would always be true
Something in my heart always knew
Id be lying here beside you

On my own
On my own
On my own

So many promises
Never should be spoken
Now I know what loving you cost
Now were up to talking divorce
And we werent even married

On my own
Once again
One more time
By myself

No one said it was easy
But it once was so easy
Well I believed in love
Now here I stand

I wonder why Im on my own
Why did it end this way (on my own)
This wasnt how it was supposed to be (on my own)
I wish that we could do it all again

So many times
I know I could have told you
Losin you, it cuts like a knife
You walked out and there went my life
I dont want to live without you

On my own
Once again
This wasnt how it was supposed to be (on my own)
I wish that we could do it all again (on my own)
I never dreamed Id spend one night alone
By myself

Ive got to find out what was mine again (on my own)
My heart is saying that its time again (on my own)
And I think that Im as sure as you

Conteart: thanks!

Gezstar: GEZ!!! good to hear from ye. hope alls well with you. what u been up to lately? :)

jbhrala: thanks man...all my cheap tricks i use to fool you out of seeing the drawing mistakes :D

AndrewLey: thanks alot dude! you been killin it lately man!


ooga booga: thanks you sexy mutherfucker

SIM-R: thanks a lot homie

Lone Wolf: thanks!

Vyle: you are too nice to me. you are yummy :D

MRPLOT: thanks alot man. id love to go to spain and paint shit! i might have to on that at some point :)

Idiot Apathy: yes i will bring a bunch of stuff to look at i promise!


Layil: haha!


strych9ine: you sweet pickle you. i wish i could see my stuff through your beautiful eyes so i coulnt see all the flaws :) kisses

JasonChan: damn son the sex bot is OUR little secret remember? actually i think i might have just felt a kick :) i forgot to tell ya i stopped taking the pill a while back. :bashful:


voodoochile: thanks a ton dude!


Mandryk: thanks brotha. haah my whole schitck is to keep em laughing so they cant see how bad it is :) hope yer well these days. always look forward to your drops...

alxcote: thanks man :)


Carnifex: ccccccccaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrnnnnnnnnnniiii iiiiiiiiffffffffffffeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeexxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx.............so for the pigeon man i drew him really small in my sketchbook. then i scanned him, and colored him in photoshop. then i laid a blurred out photo id taken inthe background, and lit him accordingly. perhaps if i can find the psd i can post the progression....wll seeeeeeeeee


Mike Frank: thanks man. i try a lot of different approaches because i find it keeps the work fresh, and i can keep learning that way.


voraz: thanks dude. i do love doing those still lifes. i dont think theres a better way to learn how to paint honestly, since it just sits there. i wish i had time to do more ambitious ones :/

guterrez: thanks so much, thats such a nice thing to say :) i have painted a few of these, and my buddy rich (insane visions) bought be a little set of bhuddas when he was on vacation a while back, so if i paint any other ones ill let ya know :)

3ch1n0: oh man you saw haight street? thanks :)

Brendan N: thanks man. the toy is like a cross between a dog dick and a cockroach ;) thanks for the kind words dude!

stephen: hey man. yeah its a whole new ballgame painting small and detailed huh? fukkin crazy with the edges and subtlety you can achieve...HUSSAR that fucking bastard is so good at that...hope you get to make it up here. it would be awesome to finally meet you.

braden m: thanks so much!

Theo: coins are fun as fuck to paint i think. the simplification you can do and still make em read as coins is a real cool exercise. too bad mine are all semicircular though :) i need to work on that still.

whiteeeeeee: thanks haha

j a k e: awesome! haha represent!!!


Calle_ thanks! to answer your question, i paint on a very fine surface, and ise lots of small brushes. it gives a great level of control. also i use linseed oil as a medium, which makes the paint a little looser and easier to get sharp marks.

michaelh: thanks :)

Nerdlinger: you are too kind my friend.

thanks again you guys. all i can say is that i have learned so much from this place, your eyes and insights have helped me immeasurably. my humblest appreciation for that.-c36

[j a k e]

Justin awesome update! The camera is perfect...I always love the little swirlies you put in your still lifes and stuff. And on the girl, i love how you have made it almost like theres a spotlight on her chest. Word.

[marco nelor]

the chick with four arms...ill buy her from you, for a dollar, and some envelopes

[DSillustration]

yeah, yeah, yeah...
we all get it.
"my name is coro, and i'm sooo brilliant."

seriously, man.
i thought i'd take your update as an opportunity to say: "i love it!"
that sketchbook page is to die for.
is that really all on one sheet, or did you montage it in PS?

these all look great (and having a toy of your design is bad ass!),
but i'm totally captivated by the coins in the buddha painting.
they are sooooo simple.
really confident...really beautiful.

[JoshuaTheJames]

In that first piece is that pure white on the original canvas? That's an extra interesting design choice.

-Joshua

[Feerik]

Wow coro it's splendid, still fan of your art. I didn't have the opportunity to see you in a worshop yet, when i'll see you i have a lot of questions for you :)

[SamBrown36]

Yo if I need it in the morning or the middle of the night
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg (no)
If the lovin' is strong and he got it goin' on and
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg (no)
2 inches or a yard rock hard or if it's saggin'
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg (no)
So it ain't like I'm braggin' just join the paddywagon cause
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg, I ain't 2 proud 2 beg

For me to beg it is nothin' nothin' but a sixth sense
The other five is aidin' me in helpin' me to dispense
Cuz seein's believin' when seein is what I saw
If it's wrong let the left hand commence
To touch what such great thing lies ahead of G
Tempted enough I taste till it comes back to me
Movin' up to rock the boat and I won't see
So till you increase to the reason of your mindless peace
And what the hell there is no smell
But I can always tell it's left here here as well
And if the lovin the lovin the lovin was that strong
Then he gotta get at it all day and night long
Oooooh but as for you another minute ticked away
We're down to two
For those who don't know the three letters in TLC

Yo if I need it in the morning or the middle of the night
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg (no)
If the lovin' is strong and he got it goin' on and
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg (no)
2 inches or a yard rock hard or if it's saggin'
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg (no)
So it ain't like I'm braggin' just join the paddywagon cause
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg, I ain't 2 proud 2 beg

Realize the realism of reality treats
Us both the same
Cause satisfaction is the name of this game
So I choose to explain it's evident
Left Eye don't mean the rest of my body is irrelevant
In other words lets refresh your head
About pullin' down curtains and breakin' da waterbed
Yeah I like it when you (kiss)
Both sets of lips
Oooh on the TLC tip

I ain't 2 proud 2 beg
For what I call my own
Just you and me (uh)
Heyyyyyyyy

When I need 2 feel love
Why wait 4 so long
Cause I ain't 2 proud 2 beg
4 something that I call my own
And I want 2 be touched
And feeling so much because
Everybody needs some good lovin'

I ain't 2 proud 2 beg
Yo I ain't 2 proud 2 beg
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg ya'll
No I ain't 2 proud 2 beg
I ain't 2 proud I ain't 2 proud 2 beg
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg ya'll
You think I'm too proud 2 beg
I ain't 2 proud I ain't 2 proud...

Yeah Coro, awesome range and mastery of different subjects and rendering styles, as usual.
I need to pick up your toy. I just hope I can buy some of these in SF and hope you could sign me them !
See you really soon !

Really nice stuff as usual, coro. I keep looking at your work from time to time to remind myself how good painting from life should look. Keep at it, man.

The woman with the scales is great too, you put a lot of love in her punani, haha! looks so real. :P

Damn, Coro. I've always had a love for your stuff, but since picking up oils myself, I'm seeing so much more in every one of these pieces.

How big is the first piece? I love the little reflections of blue on the ground-- they almost look scraped out with the butt end of a brush or something, but I imagine it would read as brush-strokes in real life.

I wish I could make Insomania. Soo many things I'd want to pick your brain on...
